Has anyone conducted an informal experiment comparing the popularity of the various suet blocks currently on the market ? There are so many brands now, and at varying prices.
A couple of years ago I tried comparing the "insect" flavour of a number of brands and found the Tom Chambers brand to be a clear favourite with the tits, nuthatches and 'peckers in my garden.
However i believe they have now changed their recipe based on the latest blocks i've received by post. Much harder, drier and less fatty and NOT a hit with the birds. Usage has now dropped from a block every 2 days a fortnight ago, to a block a week (if that) and the 'peckers are giving them and my garden a wide berth.
which brands have others found most popular?
